Location, expression and potential function of SLAMF8 in the antitumor immune response. Representations of multiplex immunofluorescence of SLAMF8 (red), CD68 (yellow), CD8 (green), and merged images in gastric cancer tissue (a); quantitative RT–PCR was used to analyse the expression levels of SLAMF8 in common T cells, T cells stimulated by IL‐2, HT29 cells, HGC27 cells and macrophages (b); the mRNA expression of SLAMF8 in TPH1‐induced macrophages with exogenous overexpression of SLAMF8 and the negative control (c); the impact of SLAMF8 overexpression in macrophages on other SLAMF family genes expression by RNA sequencing and related comparison (d); GO (e) and KEGG (f) pathway analysis to explore the pathways enriched by exogenous overexpression in macrophages. Nonstatistical images are from one experiment that is representative of three separate experiments.
